Arma 2 Addon request thread

weaponsandcash · January 26, 2012

Hello, I need help please. I am looking for a weapon replacement to replace the mk.16/mk.17 in OA. I find this very unrealistic that entire reg army units carry only these rifles and not the M-Series.

I've attempted to use the TGW US Army replacement pack (found here http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=14928) but even with a clean install and this being the only addon, I get error messages and the addon does not work.

I was wondering if anyone could please guide me with this, I love ARMA series but I just cant bring myself to play when I see every soldier running around with a MK rifle.

thanks

My request really isn't a mod but I would like to see them.

1. I would like some extra scope options for the M27. For example there's an M4 custom that has the Acog and Reflex on top. I use the M27 as a FTL to both lay down suppression AND MOUT. It'd be really awesome.

Scope:Acog W/Reflex

2. More Night vision weapons. There's 1 HK so far and some AKs that have it but when you really want to reach out to a guy with 7.62 it's just not there. I'm not a fan of TWS and I know a lot of my guys aren't either. We're getting into a lot of Night fighting and would appreciate having Acogs that can see what we're aiming for. It would improve PID and FF.

I'd like to see the HK 21 general-purpose machine gun in ArmA 2.
--> Wikipedia

It's quite popular in South America, Africa and Asia.

I'd prefer the basic variant, but if someone really models it, I'd glady take any of it's many variants :)

Cheers,

D.

Also was popular with US SF for quite a while, saw a recent photo of one in Afghanistan with an ACOG on a Humvee.

Could someone make or direct me to some rainbow six-esque counter-terrorist/ swat units?

I love old-school swat style equipment like balaclavas, pasgt helmets, goggles, etc. I haven't been able to find too many units like that on armaholic since their all mainly military-oriented. I would really like to make some urban, hostage rescue scenarios with units like that

Have you tried these?

How about a Hispano-Suiza HS.404?

I'm looking for a tank project to work on in my free time. Please post any requests with the term @Abs so that I can just search the thread. Please include lots of references, including:

1. Blueprints

2. Walkarounds

3. Interiors

I'm hoping to work on something a bit eclectic, so only strange tank requests that haven't been seen in-game before will be considered. Any era is fine.

Thanks,

Abs

The Sheridan is pretty cool. It has a mortar like main gun and launches (faulty) ATGMs through the muzzle. The turret is interesting looking (somewhat flying-saucer like) and it has nice details on it like a giant spot light. It was a vietnam era tank, so external references should be easy relatively easy to find. I don't imagine you'd be able to find many references showing the bottom, though. Antipersonnel rounds for the main gun included beehive flechette rounds, which have never really been done before.

Two things I would love:

The HEAT round explosion from the warrior's cannon added to other HEAT weapons like the RPG.

Cut the tracer model's length in half.

UAZ with a PKM on the turret.

Any new vehicle to ArmA II is fine.

Just finish it. I remember the last guy making a huge fuzz about his "most realistic plane-addon ever!", where he opened two threads, made a poll which plane the users want, blabla and in the end he just disappeared. :D (Sorry)

Yeah well new tank...There you go: http://images.wikia.com/indianajones/images/8/8d/Tank.jpg. Multi-turret tanks are the most eclectic!

abs · January 28, 2007

WTF is that? :D

Also, I knew that was going to bomb from the start, but hell, I'm a pessimist. I'm just looking for ideas that I want to work on as a 'break' from modelling for Sept'39 and STA2. IE: I'm not going to pimp it out, and really, you'll only see it when it's done.

It would be interesting see this

wiki information

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M26_Modular_Accessory_Shotgun_System

I think it would be very useful for PvP, try to do something but I just couldnt, it would be great if someone with more experience do it

Fox '09 · June 5, 2009

as far as shotgun attachments there is a KAC masterkey in RH's MGS pack.

Maybach · January 22, 2012

WTF is that? :D

Its the tank that was built for "Indiana Jones III". You know, back when they had no CGI and actually BUILT stuff.

But its not a complete fantasy-vehicle. Basicly its a replica of a "Liberty" tank from Post-World War I, with an additional turret on top. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tank_Mark_VIII

The tank appearing in the 1989 Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade movie was a newly built replica vehicle made from an excavator, following the hull shape of the Mark VIII but with a turret added.

It would be cool if people could design static weapons that are just vehicle turrets sitting on a pile of dirt. since we can't dig into the ground and put vehicles in hull-down trenches, why not just make immobile entrenched vehicles with only the aboveground parts visible?

You can make something that looks like that quite easily in the mission editor, by using 'attachto' to pin a tank to an object like a camo net, dirt pile etc. so that the turret barely stick out of the top of the object, then use 'setpos' to sink the object below the ground, so that only the top of the object+turret is visible above the ground. The tank will move if its attached to a setpos'd object, but if you try setpos directly onto the tank it will just pop up out of the ground.

Not sure how successfully you'd be able to get the AI to use the 'buried' tanks to shoot; but you'd definitely be able to control the turret without many problems as a player.
